HOLZMILLER: PLEASE REVIEW THE ATTACHED DRAWING SHOWING THE ADDITION OF COMPRESSOR AND WATER CIRCULATION UNIT. PER SPECIFIC PLAN FOR CARLSBAD OAKS BUSINESS PARK (ATTACHED) SECTION N: "EXTERIOR COMPONENTS OF PLUMBING, PROCESSING HEATING, COOLING AND VENTILATING SYSTEMS (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO... COOLING AND VENTILATING FANS, COMPRESSORS, ETC.) SHALL NOT BE DIRECTLY VISIBLE TO SURROUNDING AREAS AND SHALL BE SCREENED TO THE SATISFACTION OF THE PLANNING DIRECTOR. AN EXTERIOR, MASONRY ENQDSURE FOR SCREENING AN AIR THE DRAWING INDICATES A 7' - 4" HIGH MASONRY ENCLOSURE WHICH WILL COMPLETELY SCREEN ALL EQUIPMENT FROM THE STREET. THE ENCLOSURE IS SIZED TO ALLOW FOR THE 24' DRIVE AISLE CLEARANCE REQUIRED FOR THE ADJACENT PARKING LOT. THE EQUIPMENT WAS NOT LOCATED ON THE ROOF FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS : 1. HOT WATER PIPEWORK FROM THE WATER RECIRCULATION UNIT CHILLER TO THE COATING CHAMBER WOULD BE LOCATED ABOVE THE ACOUSTICAL CEILING WITH EXPENSIVE AND DELICATE ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT BELOW. IF LEAKS WERE TO DEVELOP THIS EQUIPMENT WOULD BE DAMAGED. SENIOR ASSOCIATES: THOMAS E. AWBREY, A.I.A./DALE DREXLER/JON LEE EBERT ASSOCIATES: ROBERT E. BROTHERTON. A.I.A./TIMOTHY J. RUBESH, A.I.A./ROBERT E. SMITH, A.I.A. RICHARD J. STICKLER, A.I.A/BRUCE C. THOMAS, A.I.A. h MICHAEL HOLZMIUER AUGUST 8, 1988 PAGE TWO 2. THE CHILLER PROTECTS A $300,000.00 COATING CHAMBER AND MUST BE CONSTANTLY MONITORED TO ENSURE CONTINUOUS OPERATION. IF EQUIPMENT WERE TO FAIL, SERVICE COULD BE PERFORMED MORE QUICKLY DUE TO ITS GROUND LEVEL LOCATION. 3. EXPENSIVE STRUCTURAL CHANGES WOULD BE REQUIRED TO ROOF STRUCTURE TO SUPPORT THIS EQUIPMENT AND MODIFICATIONS WOULD DISRUPT PRODUCTION IN AREAS BELOW. 4. DUE TO DISTANCE FROM THE ROOF TOP MECHANICAL AREA AND THE COATING CHAMBER, LARGER PUMPS WOULD BE REQUIRED FOR MORE WASTEFUL ENERGY USAGE. PLEASE CALL AFTER YOU HAVE REVIEWED THIS INFORMATION. KAISER ELECTRO-OPTICS IS ANXIOUS TO PUT THE COATING CHAMBER, WHICH THIS PROTECTS, INTO FULL OPERATION. THEREFORE YOUR PROMPT ATTENTION TO THIS ALTERATION WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
